“…then, I started to actually try and use it. And
within a few moments, I found myself
forgetting all about my physical design, and
realizing that everything I was really interested
in was happening in my relationship between

inside the machine, and the interaction
between me and the device was all to do with
the digital software and very little to do with
the physical design.”
